Follow My Blog Friday #98


If you are new to the FF fun, Feature and Follow Friday is a blog hop that expands your blog following by a joint effort between bloggers. Feature & Follow Friday is now hosted by TWO hosts, myself of course and Alison of Alison Can Read. Each host will have their own Feature Blog and this way it'll allow us to show off more new blogs!

How does this work? First you leave your name here on this post, then you create a post on your own blog that links back to this post (easiest way is to just grab the code under the #FF picture and put it in your post) and then you visit as many blogs as you can and tell them "hi" in their comments (on the post that has the #FF image). You follow them, they follow you. Win. Win. Just make sure to follow back if someone follows you!

Now to make this FF interesting we do a FEATURE blogger. If you are interested in becoming a Feature click on the drop down link above FEATURES and Features and Follow Friday and get on the waiting list!  It is also required, that if you participate you must follow the hosts (Parajunkee and Alison Can Read) and the two Feature blogs.

This Meme is hosted by Rachel from Parajunkee's View and Alison from Alison Can Read on Fridays.

To join the fun and make now book blogger friends, just follow these simple rules:

1. Follow the Follow My Book Blog Friday Host {Parajunkee.com} {Alisoncanread.com}and any one else you want to follow on the list.

2. Follow our Featured Bloggers - The Fake Steph Dot Com and Books Galore.

3. Put your Blog name and URL in the Linky thing.

4. Grab the button up there and place it in a post, this post is for people to find a place to say hi in your comments

When did you start blogging?

My blog has been around since 2008, but I started posting semi-regularly in 2010 and it wasn’t until 2011 that I found the book blogging community. 2012 is really when I fell in love with blogging, so even though my blog has been around for a while, most of the time I still feel like a new blogger.

What is your favorite part of book blogging?

Easily the best part of book blogging has been meeting other bloggers. It’s amazing to know people who love books as much as I do and I’ve been able to translate a few of those blogging connections into real world friendships. A close second is that I’m now more willing to read outside my comfort zone. I’ve read and loved so many books that I might have completely missed if it weren’t for other book bloggers.

What is your favorite book(s)?

Right now my favorite book is The Scorpio Races by Maggie Stiefvater. I seriously can’t stop talking about it.

Other than that, I love: The Great Gatsby, Harry Potter, Paper Towns, and The Confessions of Georgia Nicholson.

What has been the best thing that has happened to you because of book blogging?

The best thing that has happened to me because of book blogging is meeting other bloggers. I actually got together with two other Virginia bloggers for Dewey’s 24 hour readathon this year and it was so much fun. It was a completely different experience from doing the readathon alone and only interacting online.

Please welcome Makayla from Books Galore!
When did you start blogging? I started blogging in June 2011.

What are your favorite things about blogging? My favourite part of blogging is sharing my opinion with others, and meeting new bloggers.

What are your favorite books? My favourite books are The Mortal Instrument series By Cassandra Clare, Shatter Me By Tahereh Mafi, and Fever By Lauren DeStefano.

What is the best thing that has happened to you since you started blogging? The best thing that has happened because of book blogging is that I get to talk to other people who share my love for reading, and I feel I have learned so much more from blogging then I did before about books.

Q: This Sunday in the U.S. is Mother's Day. In celebration, what are some of your favorite books with strong mother/child relationships?

This is a very good question. Most of the books I read the mother is either dead, alive only for a short time or doesn't have a strong mother/child relationship.

Ugh, GFC doesn't seem to be working for me right now, but I'll be back to follow you! I've a book coming out in a few weeks, and can't wait to familiarize myself with your policy.

I hope you'll check out my page.
